Hello Stu, Thanks for the follow-up....
I am a design engineer with Audio Research Corp. and understand the issues all too well....

The world moves a lot in 3 weeks and so does software development - if you haven't experienced the productivity and development rate of modern software teams, a) your missing out on a great experience and b) you don't have a frame of reference. There was a MIC gain control and it was used to set the MIC level - but it was externalized by the client (SmartSDR). Unlike PowerSDR where all the UI and DSP software are combined in one piece of software, SmartSDR is a THIN client - its basically a user interface. All the DSP functionality runs on a dedicated processor within the radio itself. So you have three key elements. - Functionality (like Mic Gain) in the radio - A connector to allow that to be driven over the Ethernet - A control on the user interface to provide end user control For Visalia, the piece that was "missing" was the connector. It was a simple matter to add it but changing the spark plugs on the car the night before the race is ill-advised. Oh, BTW, the connector appeared the day after Convention.
